Good location, good value
Glenys
Everything I needed, clean and tidy.
Frith
Very nice, helpful staff. Lovely unit. I will stay here again
Veronica
Spacious room with most everything we needed for a quick overnight stay along our journey. Despite this being an older hotel we found the space very clean, the beds comfortable and the shower great.
Michelle
Perfect for what we needed and bed was very comfortable. The staff at checking in was very nice and helpful. The only reason for not 5 stars was the fire alarm in our room kept going off from 12.45am till 6am and we couldnt stop it so had interrupted sleep.
Kim
Staff friendly. Room was clean, beds super comfortable. Great grass area for kids to play
Tracey
The motor lodge was unclean, dirty windows, dirty and worn carpet, filthy staircase and skirtings. My room - windows had mould on them, only wall plug to use was on a wall across from bed. Terrible wifi - kept disconnecting. The shower had shampoo and conditioner, but the shampoo bottle was nearly empty, and for body wash - it was only a tiny bar of soap. Will never stay here again.
Cameron
Close to shops and easy to get to
paria
it wasn’t horrible but definitely wasn’t worth what I payed the shower pressure wasn’t great and the head was up to my shoulders. They tend to walk in your room randomly. Which is annoying.
Eric
Busy road access

Rebecca
I cant provide a proper review as this is a work trip and I only do the bookings but I can say it is accommodation that is requested by staff so that is positive feedback without details.
Paul
Nice inside but very dark.Road access poor, grounds untidy
Billy
Old furniture and damp inside
Gillian
It was a clean but basic hotel room. No air-conditioning or ceiling fans so it was quite warm. The water pressure in the shower was not great. Comfortable for one night stay.
Michael
I stayed here on the recommendation of a colleague. Unfortunately, it has deteriorated since they stayed a few years ago.
Certainly, needs some TLC.

Energy Restorer after 3-day Walk
This was an overnight stay at the end of walking the Tora Coastal walk, before a long drive back to Hamilton. The room was comfortable and very clean. Good supply of crockery, etc., and unit had everything we needed to cook breakfast. Nice view across the road to the harbour.

Very nice accommodation. Short drive to CBD, close to the beach and walkways, restaurants and shops

The repair for the TV was very quick, even though it took several times for the manager to get it working. Also, it was very close to several eateries.

They must have a look at the toilet as the back part was loose.
Further we had a very good time.

Sandra
Great location
John
Very suitable location to stay and get to ferry. 10 minutes away by car
Jed
Mould in the bathroom was not good. Staff however were friendly and helpful
Sean
Area is made up of offices and residential housing, apart from beach there is not much else to do nearby. That being said if needing a base to explore the larger Wellington area or business stops then no real issues apart from busy road in front of the property.
Robert
Great spot with Food and bars close by. Supermarket handy and the Warehouse for anything else required.
Train station about 5-10 minute walk.
A walk down the beach in the evening or morning is a great way to relax.
The room is basic but has everything that you need.
I stay again as the location was great for going to sports or a concert in Wellington and not having to worry about parking.

I liked the view, size of the room & decore. The shower curtain was too short & water got on the floor that i had to clean up. Also there was no Sky Channels as Advertised.
Jacynthe
The rooms are small and dated and everyone sees your business if the drapes are opened. The man at the reception was very nice and friendly.

Hotel is in a nice quiet area,, across the street from the beach. Room is not very well kept as other Asure places.

The place was nice and quiet and I slept well, it was well cxleaned apart from the golf tee down the sofa
Maria
Wasn’t impressed to find no parks when coming back late at night had to park out front and run round in the rain by myself.

No hassle check in. Only there for 1 night, after a South Island trip. Staff friendly enough. Room tidy and clean.

Wasn't informed til I got to the property that I needed to pay a $100 deposit. The guy was pretty rude. Definitely won't be staying here again
Lance
clean and convieniant. there is a problem with imediate access to the west when exiting the premises would be the only improvement I can think of
Christine
The building and surrounding grounds need maintenance and a tidy up
Verified traveler
Motel is getting old.
Make sure you get a top floor unit as the floors are very noisey when you are on the ground floor. Curtain was hanging from rail. Beds were ok, but very handy to Petone Railway station and Bus. PNS supermarket in walking distance.
john
Very clean and room of good standard although you could hear a lot through the walls.
Despite claim in motel handbook in the room about being friendly to the environment there was no recycling and towels were changed each day. Unfortunately other guests smoked outside their rooms and frequently the smell drifted into ours and over us as we went to our car

Like having the cooking facilities Like microwave, plates knives etc
Peter
We had a room at the front of the property and the noise from the main road about 20 metres away was terrible. Make sure you get a room at the back.
Karen
The beds were comfy. All self-contained. Great value. Carpark outside door plus extra at the back. Beach Esplanade across the road. A range of boutique shops, eateries, takeaways, supermarkets, gyms etc nearby.
Corrie
We found Asure at the last minute and they were very accomodating to our needs, we checked in late and were able to check out late. Everything was user friendly, and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay.
Frances
Hi there, I've stayed at Asure 83 before and it felt different then - pre Covid days. Now it just seemed tired. On arrival, the person at Reception was a young guy who really didn't fit there and certainly didn't have a clue. The Manager was fine. He had phoned me the evening prior to make sure he had the details for bedding configuration correct - which I appreciated. I spoke to him in the morning about the noise throughout the complex (we had 10 people in 5 rooms). Apparently there was a sports group of 18 year olds in-house. That was a shame, and a nuisance, as we'd driven down from Cambridge and had to drive the same distance back the next day after attending WOW. We really needed our rest. The reception area is tired, as are the grounds and the rooms, especially the area just outside the rooms. No extraction fan in the bathroom, but there were condoms in the bedside cabinet (really?!). The carpet was not vaccumed. I would give this a 2 star rating
Ian
I found the duty manager Alvin to be very helpful … I had lots of luggage and he moved me to a downstairs room to make life easier ….much appreciated.
Marty
We lovedour stay. Very clean and comfortable. Great shower. Well presented.
Ross
Really nice room. Clean and compact but everything is there. Felt safe and bedding was fresh. I will go back and stay there
Jay
They really looked after us and we had a toddler so wasn’t too much baby proofing of the room required as everything is up high! Excellent location as well, right across from the water and walking distance to shops.
Tzuli
excellent!!
Clive
Nice and convenient if you're catching the ferry.
Unfortunately walls are too thin and you can hear everything. Bathroom definitely felt dated.

Noisy road traffic and noisy upstairs guests - not the guests fault but just could hear every movement.

This place was ok. Pretty dared, basic and in close pry to Petone.
The road & industrial noise levels were a problem. One night we could hear boy racers for hours on The Esplanade. Not a fault of the property but it did Impact our sleep.

Could hear everything from room above us,snoring,a gentleman using the toilet,the ceiling creaking as he walked.

Service was horrendous. Made to feel unwelcome the entire time. Checked on intrusively. Tried to charge for 2 extra people when base charge includes 2. Threatened to call the police because of guests. Would not recommend. Cancelled (and was refunded) second night.

We were catching the ferry across the cook strait so was very close so suited use well for that.

For what we paid the room was a bit dated and the deodoriser they use in room or on carpets was not pleasant. $170 was quite a lot compared to room we stayed in night before in Wellington for same price which was a lot nicer decor. With a bit of TLC it could be good.

Rooms are very dated & need maintenance.
Shower smelt musty, I wondered if it was from the drain. Every time we walked into bathroom we could smell it. Window fastener was missing of the window.
Bed was comfortable & bedding was clean.
